22:12At that time the sovereign master, the Lord who commands armies, called for weeping and mourning,
for shaved heads and sackcloth.32

You say, “Kill the ox and slaughter the sheep,
eat meat and drink wine.
Eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!”34
Footnotes
- 32 Heb “for baldness and the wearing of sackcloth.” See the note at .
- 33 Heb “happiness and joy.”
- 34 The prophet here quotes what the fatalistic people are saying. The introductory “you say” is supplied in the translation for clarification; the concluding verb “we die” makes it clear the people are speaking. The six verbs translated as imperatives are actually infinitives absolute, functioning here as finite verbs.

“Let us eat and drink,” you say,
“for tomorrow we die!”

On that day the Lord God of Armies
called for weeping, for wailing, for shaven heads,

NLTNew Living Translation
At that time the Lord, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies,
called you to weep and mourn.
He told you to shave your heads in sorrow for your sins
and to wear clothes of burlap to show your remorse.
But instead, you dance and play;
you slaughter cattle and kill sheep.
You feast on meat and drink wine.
You say, “Let’s feast and drink,
for tomorrow we die!”
